Painting Decorative Indoor/Outdoor Signs - sign in the gardenI found these very nice metal/tin signs to upscale for my home and outdoor garden. I looked at the decorated metal signs, that are to pricey for my taste. So here is my take on a decorative spin on them.

Supplies:

  • metal signs
  • spray paint
  • clear spray sealer - I used Rustoleum semi-gloss clear spray
  • stencils
  • craft paint
  • sponge brush

Steps:

  1. Take your signs and spray paint both sides. Allow to dry.
    2. Painting Decorative Indoor/Outdoor Signs - plain metal signs

  2. Stencil on a decorative design (optional); allow to dry.
    3. Painting Decorative Indoor/Outdoor Signs - stencil, brush, and bottle of paint

  3. Add stenciled wording or use plastic adhesive stick-on letters. Add spray sealer. Dry
    4. Painting Decorative Indoor/Outdoor Signs - two different signs
